Airbox Ductwork and Hoses
It is a scientific fact that when air speed doubles, drag increases
four times. Of course, this holds true for air box ducts too.
This means it is in your best interest to ensure that the insides
of your duct hoses are as smooth as possible. At 100 mph flow
inside one of the two inch, ribbed-interior, automotive parts
store hoses is restricted to the size of a finger because of the
turbulence and drag created by the rough walls. AirTECH offers
smoothbore hose constructed of a silicone high-temperature impregnated
fiberglass fabric wrapped around a steel spring. This hose allows
air to flow through unrestricted. Three different sizes are available,
two inch, two and a quarter inch, and two and a half inch diameters.
This stuff is sold by the foot. If you are currently using that
aluminum automotive stuff, toss it and notice the huge difference
this killer hose can make to airflow.
AirTech also carries a variety of miscellaneous ducting. Pretty
much any shape you could want is available. Since we have fabricated
a ton of internal ductwork for the factory teams, about any shape
in any fairing can be grafted out and put into another fairing.
To try and describe what we have would require a ludicrous amount
of space, so just call us and tell us what you want. We can help.
